"When is Cat's Day?"
So, today was father’s day. Happy Father’s day to all the dads out there. I had to work, but got to go home a bit early which was good because I am leaving first thing in the morning to be with Master for a few days. I still had laundry to finish, and ironing, and packing. We wound up having a father’s day cook-out here for just us. My dad was content to see me tomorrow for his present. I swear, he is ready to turn in these days at dinner time.
He had a long talk with the kids, that just because he’s leaving doesn’t mean he’s not their dad anymore. While they are practically grown, my mentally challenged daughter was thinking maybe a divorce meant no more daddy.
So I explained to her that no, it doesn’t mean that at all. Your daddy is your daddy forever, no matter where he lives. It’s hard to know what’s going on inside of her head sometimes.
Everything is mostly amicable this week. We had one big altercation regarding money, but settled it within a day or two. Thank goodness.

"I just want to sleep"
Master has been busy with work and whatnot. I’m looking forward to some time alone with him this week. And time away from work too. I think the tiredness is probably related to stress. Lots of changes. I’m sleeping okay. In fact, I’m falling asleep earlier than normal. Boy I’ll be glad when my energy level returns to normal though.
There isn’t much else going on, other than splitting one big household into two. Not much on the kinky front. Maybe after this little trip I’ll have more to discuss. Right now, all I want to do is curl up with my owner and sleep, sleep, sleep.
(That’s my baby! Ain’t she purdy?)

Awwwww animals always make me mushy. And yes the tiredness is most definitely stress induced, I go there from time to time. Look after yourself hunni *hugs* x
I love your kitty! Love B&W’s anyway and yes, we often look at our cats and say, “Damn! Can we come back as cats, please?”
They have quite the life; no stress.
I’m liking the new layout of your blog
Gorgeous kitty, by the way. I have a calico and I am quite envious of her life! The picture on the wall behind your cat could use some straightening though…
Just kidding.
I know most people take melatonin when they’re unable to fall asleep at night. However, I think it might still be a good idea. When I was on it, I always woke up with such energy that never faded until later on in the evening. It might be worth looking into.
I’m sorry that your kids are struggling with this change, but keep the long term results in mind. They’ll be thankful for you making a decision that will benefit all of them in the end. It will take some adapting, but they most definitely will get to that end point where they will realize that it is for the best. Being in a home with two parents that are not happy with each other is not something that they would want for either of you!
I’m glad you have your Master around to be your rock during this time. And, I understand the stress behind taking care of everyone else, but don’t forget to take care of yourself too!
